<VV> Corvair Museum now a featured Route 66 attraction!

[Jay Maechtlen]

Ah, yes, quite visible in the other pic. quite an install. Kind of 
hilarious that a race car could also be billed as a 'clean air car'!
Thanks!

We have relatives in Springfield - I hope we can get back there and 
visit them again in the next year or two. When we do, this will be a 
great side trip.
